WOW!! I'm speechless.... this poem is sooo deep and well-expressed... The emotions and experiences you've written about are outstanding... I absolutely loved it! The title caught my eye and I was engaged throughout the entire poem... I also loved the ending! Great job!

Thanx for the input, I'll play with it and edit it some more. It IS more of a short story, but in the form of poetry, that's what I was aiming for. The quotes were meant for impact...

The thing I love most about your writing is you always put everything you have into your work. Talent between artists will always be different, but you have to respect people who give everything they have no matter what. As long as you write whats in your heart and hold nothing back you'll always be happy with your work...Excellent job expressing your emotions with this piece.
